Mitsubishi HC 900 DLP Projection Lamp Shutdown.

Mitsubishi HC 900 DLP Projection Shutdown. Ok, after several hundred hours of use I finally replaced my bulb. Never did receive message stating bulb was nearing its 2000 hr life, but it started shutting down after 30 seconds of use so i just replaced it. Well the problem now is after the install of a new bulb and about 30 hours on it, I'm getting the same scenario. I know all about resetting the bulb timer via the manual, but in doing so there is no popup stating the timer has reset on the bulb or how many hours are currently on it. So to be honest I dont know if the unit accepted the reset command or not. But what I do know is I'm not planning on buying a new bulb every week. Im really beginning to supsect a different safety feature failure perhaps??

Honestly I would try entering the 'Lamp timer reset' code again. Or the button sequence given to reset the lamp timer.
An issue that may be happening is that something may have happened to the lamp ballast power supply also.
Just a thought.

    I am having the same problem with mine. Although I did get the replace the bulb messages. I have always used on low power so I figured that it was not important to worry about the 2000 hour warning when the bulb should go 4000 on low. Anyway the machine just stopped today. I changed the bulb and reset the timer but it still won't work??? Any ideas?

Replacing uhp lamp and remove ballast with Xenon lamp and 55W ballast!

You are going to ruin the optics using a Xenon lamp. The ballast in the TV talks back via UART to the CPU. By removing the ballast the TV cannot talk to it and run itself properly. Also using a xenon lamp will give terrible color reproduction as its not putting out nearly enough lumens in the right spectrum. It will also bombard the color wheel and DLP chip with UV light and ruin those as well.

How can you diagnose a failed lamp in a Mitsubishi DLP WD 52631

Remove the lamp and do a visual inspection.
If this is a DLP you may have a bad color wheel! whistling sound is a sign of color wheel.

Good luck to you

Lg tv will not turn on it is a micro projection 55 inch hd dlp xd hit power a hundred times and it will eventually turn on but this is what it does it will blink yellow the bulb will light up screen will...

Have you actually replaced the lamp first? A weakened lamp will often cause random shutdown or troubles during initial firing of the lamp. The LG televisions will be just the bulb itself not the complete lamp assembly. It's not hard to replace the bulb as long as you first allow the TV to cool down for a minimum of an hour. Then you will want to handle the lamp with latex gloves on to avoid getting oils from your skin on the bulb. You can find your bulb replacement at http://www.partstore.com

Mitsubishi WD-52525 52-inch DLP HDTV ywllow warning lamp light

that means your lamp it is getting to the end of its life.
sometimes even if the lamp still good the TV will send you that message because that timer is closed to 5000 hours

What you can do is open the lamp door, closed again and the tv will ask you if you replaced it the lamp, and just say yes and that sign will go away

or just simple replace the lamp. 915P020010
